Hi,

I found some smoking ads in episodes of Dragnet that I screened in a
Television Studies class last year.  Jack Webb (Joe Friday) steps out of
character, a extols the virtues of Camels (I think).  Amazing that one ad
claims that "more doctors recommend Camels" than any other brand.  I belive
the same was true in an episode of "The Lone Wolf" and as I remember a piece
of the set used in the fictional part of the show was used as a site for the
commercial.

Hope this helps.

Jeannette
